Carrots are a type of vegetable that likes it very wet, so it is always necessary that the place where they are planted has a regular watering, but always avoid waterlogging.
I remembered in my college someone said we shall plant carrots, but the twist is that we lived in the northern part of the Philippines where heat is always unbeatable, they said why not just try, ended up waste for cannot really strive the heat. I think not just the water management but the favorable condition of the place where they could get enough respiration from it.
